Clan [X] and Clan [X2] - Farming & War sister clans

About Us
The Clan [X] family is a great, friendly, rewarding set of clans. When you want to farm you join Clan [X], when you feel like taking part in a war you join Clan [X2]. You can go back and forth as much as you like!


A lot of us have been in clans together for over 6 months, some of us for over a year. We started a new clan when clan wars started and have only lost 2 so far!


Members from all around the world; US, South America, UK and Netherlands. Most of us are aged 20-40 and have jobs so are not on 24/7 but we're a very active clan. Members also include some wives, partners and some younger members aged between 12-17.
We are all friendly, mature and active in donating. Experienced members are happy to give advice and tips if you want them.


Requirements
To join you must be lvl 45+ and have 1100 Trophies. Once you join we no longer have trophy requirements.


---------------------------


CLAN [X] RULES


All members to get their archers and giants up to level 4 asap.


All members to try to donate roughly as much as they receive. Exception made for lower level members with lower level troops. Members with low level troops can still donate, just check first.


If you request and someone is waiting for donations before you, make sure you donate if you can.
Donate what is asked for. If u don't have it, don't donate, or ask if they're interested in something else.


ELDER IS EARNED, NOT ASKED FOR!
Every few weeks, the leaders look at donations, chat activity, war activity etc and general attitude and will promote (or demote) based on this.


We do not care about how many trophies you have or what league you're in unless we are doing a trophy run. In Clan [X] you are free to drop as low as you like so you can farm your asses off!


Trophy runs will periodically be announced to give members and the clan the chance to push themselves to their limit and see how far they can go.
This is also good practice for when we get higher up!

Basic Guidelines


1. If you request troops make sure you donate.
2. Keep active.
3. Do not donate troops that are not requested.
4. Be friendly.
5. Be mature and considerate.
7. Try not to gem or upgrade Town Hall past your overall base level.


If you can follow these rules and would like to try us out apply at Clan [X] . We have a black and white shield. Hope to see you there!

CLAN [X2] WAR RULES


PREPARATION DAY


All war castles will receive highest level troops possible. Feel free to request whatever you want. Level 6 giants, archers and wizards, lvl 4 dragons or lvl 5 hogs work particularly well in your war castle to make your defenses as strong as possible.
Don't bother donating to war castles if you don't have high lvl troops. They'll just get binned.


Make sure your War base Town Halls are as well protected and defended as possible! Don't give them an easy star!

WAR DAY


Top bases to be attacked by top members and low bases by low members, unless otherwise agreed.

24-18 hours left: Low members go first and try to get 3 stars on the easiest bases first.
18-6 hours left: Mid level members go. We work our way up map, trying to get 3 stars on each.
6 hours left: Higher level members attack last.
If there are easy ones with no stars or only 1 star won, and no more lower level members left to attack, go for it and get us an easy 3 stars!


For your first attack, attack either your recommended base or 1-3 bases below it. Aim to get 3 stars on your first attack.
War is NOT the time to test yourself against higher bases! Aim low and safe to make sure you get ideally 2, preferably 3 stars!


Don't waste an attack on a base that has already been attacked unless you are confident you can get more stars.

CLAN [X] BOOT CAMP


WHEN: Boot camp begins now and will last until Friday.


WATCH & LEARN: During the week, our most senior member, and co-leader, Gummywarrior18$, will be sharing classic examples on our chat, demonstrating best practice of how to do attacks. He will do this using his 2nd account in our clan, dogmatic, which has lower level troops and base so it's more relevant to lower lvl members. Same strategies work across all levels.


SHARE & LEARN: Also during the week, members are encouraged to share any attacks or defenses where you would like feedback on how you could have done better. Elders and leaders will then respond with advice to help you improve your skills and become a better warrior! Rargh!!


---------------------------------------------------


CLAN [X2] - The War Clan


On Friday we begin a trial month of having 2 separate clans for farming and war, so members can choose to farm and war whenever suits them. If, after a month, it is working well, we will keep it going.


Clan [X2] will be lead by Eclipse, and co-lead by Chucklette and Gummywarrior18$ when they are there. Clan [X] will always have either Chucklette, Gummywarrior18$ or Dogmatic (Gummy's 2nd account) present as leader.


WAR ROUND THE CLOCK
Clan [X2] will be constantly at war. If you wish to join the next war, you must be in Clan [X2] at the time Eclipse has announced he will start the next war.
Once Prep Day has begun, you can go between the 2 clans if you wish.


FIRST WAR INVITE ONLY x 15
At first, Clan [X2] will be only 15 members per war, then this will increase as the number of members across clans increases.


EARN YOUR PLACE IN WAR
For the first war, Eclipse will invite some senior members to join. THE REMAINING PLACES WILL BE GIVEN TO MEMBERS WHO HAVE PROVED THEMSELVES DURING BOOTCAMP!


If you want to be in the first war, please let Eclipse, Chucklette or Gummy know on chat so we can watch your shared replays and consider you for the first 10.


Any questions, ask Chuck, Eclipse or Gummy.


Good luck and happy clanning!

1. Make more than you spend!
Look at possible easy loot to win (collectors round the edge)
Rough calculate how much elixir it costs to make the troops you will send in.
Make sure it cost you less that what you'll take! DON'T GET CARRIED WAY


2. Army setup
5 giants
Rest archers and gobs split 50%.
With 2 army barracks doing archers and 2 doing gobs continually building, that way you can keep raiding nonstop . I try and keep each raid under 40 of each.
But if there is a base that has a lot of loot that's when you use the giants, only as a meat shield, so use them sparingly to take the fire while your gobs/archers get the loot.
And stop and think if there is only 5k left don't waste your troops getting that. If there is a town hall unprotected drop one archer at the beginning that way you will pick loot/trophies inside.
By using this continuous method you can protect you loot by being constantly online. So you will be dropping trophies and when you go offline you will be a difficult target at that trophy level for most attackers.


3. Strategy - Picking bases to attack
Look for grave stones this means the player may not have reset traps.
Loot at the total loot if they are high and similar it means it may be abandoned base and most loot could be in collectors. See how full the loot storage is, this will get easier to spot.
Pick single targets on the edge and use a ring of archers with a ring of gobs.
I'm going to post replays on clan chat.

These are not the only way to farm, post up your army's and how you use them so we can all learn from each other!
